Myth: Everybody snores, therefore it's normal.Fact: Snoring is not a normal condition. Labelling it as 'normal' diminishes theseriousness of the condition. Snoring is not just about annoying your partner, it is asign that the body is struggling to breathe properly during the night. Snoring on afrequent or regular basis has been associated with hypertension and can also bean indication of sleep apnea (pauses in breathing). Sleep apnea sufferers havebeen reported to have diminished gray cells in their brains, most likely due to theoxygen deprivation of untreated sleep apnea.Myth: Snoring only affects the health of the snorer.Fact: Snoring doesn't just negatively affect the health of the person snoring, but alsothe health of the person lying next to them in bed. A typical snorer usually producesa noise that averages around 60 decibels (about the level of vacuum cleaner), butwith some people this can reach 80 or even 90 decibels (about the level of anaverage factory).Myth: Snoring comes from the nose, so if I unclog my nose, my snoring will stop.Fact: Having a stuffy nose can definitely aggravate snoring and sleep apnea, but init's not the cause. A recent study showed that undergoing nasal surgery for breath-ing problems cured sleep apnea in only 10% of patients. Snoring vibrations typi-cally come from the soft palate, which is aggravated by having a small jaw and thetongue falling back. It's a complicated relationship between the nose, the soft palateand the tongue.Myth: I know I don't snore, or have apnea. I am fine.Fact: Don't ignore your wife when she tells you that your snoring doesn't let hersleep. When a partner snores it is very difficult for the spouse to sleep. There arepeople who snore excessively and suffer from sleep apnea, but feel absolutelynormal. However, snoring increases their risk of getting a heart attack and stroke.
